Lodizal  

Well, I totally forgot about this mob.. I decided to head back yesterday with my 65 warrior and my 65 cleric... Dual boxing them. Some level 60 something shaman thought he was going to be cool and pull him before I engaged...let's say he died right quick lol. So I engaged, No slows or anything, just whatever damage he put out was my DPS. Defensive when the fight started...yeah, needed to CH like 4 times, ended the fight with 100% mana on the cleric. Warrior had about 6800 hps with virtue on..got 2 boots, 2 maps, and the shell. Bonus 10k ;).. his spawn time is around 12 hrs.

What is the spawn time ?

Have seen Lodi soloed many times by shammys of course, but yes a 62 bst can solo him, with epics though, I have seen this done by friend on the rathe, also you dont have to be 60 to whoop him a group consisting of bst/clr/dru/sham/war and any other class can easy solo this ***** done it where shammy landed slow at 75% and when shammy couldnt but the bst epic proc'd for 55% slo, and also did it with no slow but was a pain cause clr's c3 had just faded b4 pop and druid had to help heal most of time but we did it all 3 ways, it is easiest with a high lvl slower but my group consistign of 50-54 of the above classes takes him easy slow or not but main thing is buffs, make sure warrior is buffed like a ***** hehe

Agree that this is a tough spawn to get, made an attempt to kill him earlier with my guild. Had my druid camped out in IC to check on him and stormfeather, happened to get lucky and see Lodi was up. Aggroed him and ran around the island while I got some guildies together to come take him out. Of course I died while running him around the island because of a couple of adds, but never did get summoned. But of course a 65 shammy showed up along with his buddy (most likely two-boxed) who promptly got there right as my guildies did and engaged Lodi right on top of my corpse....pffftt Wasn't really ksed, but definitely wasn't a very respectful thing to do considering they've killed him god only knows how many times (other friends have seen the same two out there before killing him in the past). So, I checked the time of the kill and then decided to check back again within 10 to 11 hours... and sure enough the same two peeps were there waiting for him to spawn..... bah
/exit
But anyway it is possible to throw a dot on him without being summoned allowing you to kite him around while waiting for reinforcements and evidently he does fall in this 10-13 hour spawn time... or at least the experts (65shammy and his buddy) seem to think so.

I kill Lodizal on Brell alot Solo He isnt tough at all. You just have to do a few important things

1. Get him slowed
2. Conserve mana
3. For gods sakes HASTE YOUR PET!!!


I usually malo him from his rest point run a bit and ROOT HIM (is rootable) Then I malosinia-Cripple-slow and from there load up all my damage spells/heals Usually i keep torpor and tnargs mending up (tnargs for emergency heal case you catch a tripple after canni 5)


LODI IS TOUGH TO SOLO SOMETIMES

If lodizal is weilding 2 clubs he will Quad instead of double and will be much more likely to hit you for full damage. If he is quadding Zone to ToFS. Lodi will despawn and repop in 10-15 min With a NEW loot table and possibly not 2 clubs thus making your fight Easy. PS watch KSER's

A couple friends of mine went to iceclad last night to check for Stormfeather, and he wasn't up, but our favorite oversized turtle was. We decided to kill him for the heck of it, and our group makeup was 61 ranger, 59 warrior, 59 mage, and 58 druid (me).

He was an easy fight. Ranger slowed him with epic.. we had the three of them for nice DPS, and I was heals. Ranger did a great job keeping aggro and Lodi went down within 3-4 minutes. His resists were poonish, especially after the mage landed Malosini.

He dropped two pieces of the map, the belt, ring, earring, a shell piece, two spells, and a bard song.

I was at about 45% mana when he dropped. Not a bad fight.. it was actually pretty fun. :)

As of Feb 03, he is not on the 11 hours +50 mins timer. I have camped it for about 5 days, and killed every pop in that time. The shortest pop we had was < 10 hours by a few mins, and the longest about 12 1/2 hours.

Also, you don't have to do damage to for him to summon you. A couple of time I have snared Lodi for the group, when it sticks that is. One time I had about 3 or 4 resists, and by that time I'd p**sed him off enough to start summoning me. I hadn't tho done him any damage (unless damage shields count). The next time tho, I cast only once (it resisted) and I was able to kite him around without being summoned.

The belts are uber rare, but we got 2 off the last kill, and one is making this ranger very happy as we speak :)

Well, I have confirmed that Lodi is not on the 11-12 hour spawn timer anymore. Anybody know how it works now, or when it changed?
